PAE G.S. Diagoras 1905 (Greek: ΠΑΕ Γ.Σ. Διαγόρας 1905) is a Hellenic professional football club based in Rhodes city founded in 1905.

Diagoras is named after the island's ancient boxer Diagoras.

The team first played under Ottoman rule until the short lived independence of the Dodecanese in 1912 and then under the Italian occupation of the island. No matches at all were held during the Balkan Wars and the team played only with other local teams until the Rhodes and Dodecanese joined with the rest of Hellas in 1947.
